Patriots Notes: Revis, Edelman, Anderson

Defense was the cornerstone of the Patriots’ three Super Bowl victories between 2001 and 2004, and stellar play from the secondary had much to do with it.

Revis’ inclusion to the team means good things for the rest of his defensive counterparts, per Chadiha.
